WARNING: This is going to be a little bit out there.  Understand that I have always wanted to see a running team and an exciting style of basketball in Charlotte for the fans.  My ideal team would have a Suns running offense from the nash and amare days combined with a Denver Nuggets defense from a couple years ago when they beat the other Hornets in the playoffs by like 60 one game. 

 

Trade 1: Al Jefferson for Ibaka and Reggie Jackson

 

We get a young super talented defenseive player in Ibaka that fits well with Biz and Zeller and a very talented young guard.  The front line of Biz, Ibaka and MKG will be the best defensive front line in the league for years.  We have elite shotblockers at the 4 and 5 plus an elite defender on the wing.  Ibaka shoots well enough to space the floor in addition to leading the league in blocks the last few years. 

 

Trade 2: Port pick (24th overal) to Boston for Nets 2016 unprotected pick and Nets 2018 unprotected pick

 

Out as head coach: Clifford

In as new head coach: Mike D

 

Extend Kemba 4 years 36 mil (9 per year) and Biz 4 years 22 mil (5.5 per year)

 

Only use cap space to sign one year deals with free agents leaving room for one Max player (Durrant) in the summer of 2016.

 

Lineup

 

Kemba/Reggie Jackson

Henderson/G Neil

MKG/CDR/Taylor

Ibaka/McBob

Biz/Zeller

 

Picks moving forward

 

2015 Det #1 top 2 protected plus our own pick

2016 Nets #1 unprotected plus our own pick

2017 our pick

2018 Nets #1 unprotected plus our own pick

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
